"Um, are you sure?
Cocor following me says worryingly.
After that, I asked a reluctant cocoa to arrange a party.
And now, I'm just leaving Safepoint looking for a monster.
Cocor still says.
"As I said earlier, when you're partying with me, you're never gonna get an XP kill bonus, are you? Besides, when you defeat a monster, it activates a skill..."
"That's okay."
I look back with only my eyes and answer Cocor.
"I don't care about experience. I need to give it a try, so can you just hang out now?
"Ha. I don't mind that..."
"Of course, if you really don't like it, I can't help it."
"I don't like it..."
"Good for you. I'm totally lower than you, but I'll take care of the avant-garde."
"... ok. I'll keep an alert back there, won't I? Need Support Effect (Buff)? There's plenty of room for MP, though."
"No. You're still shallow in the middle tier, and you don't have to be"
Answering, I'm a little touched.
Oh, here it is. I knew the party would be nice......
It's not the same peace of mind that you don't have company you can count on.
Every time they kicked me out of the party, I just fell on one of them (solo), and I was sober.
"Ah."
That's when Cocor raised his voice behind him.
I turn my attention to the enemies who have appeared forward.
Yellow, round, amorphous body.
It's a paralyzed slime that throws up paralysis poison.
I stepped in big... and dared, I stopped.
I wave my sword at the slime that jumped like I expected, trying to match the timing.
The sword line reached the nucleus, a weak spot, lightly.
A slime with zeroed HP in one stroke disperses with the effect.
"Wow, you're good!
Cocor raised his voice behind him.
Slime, which is often thought of as a miscellaneous fish monster, but there is a surprising trick to tapping the nucleus, which is a weakness site.
I used to use a way to make it jump once like this.
This way, the body stretches longer and thins the part that protects the nucleus, while inevitably.
Well, it's one of those ideas I knitted to be as powerful as possible at the party.
But I didn't care about that now.
I look at the coins and items left after the slime disappears.
"This slime drops a lot of money, doesn't it? Oh, it's" The Nuclear Stone of Paralysis Slime "! You were lucky."
"... no, not yet. I don't know yet."
"Yeah, what is it?
I shake my head and walk behind me, like Cocor's confused.
Even I usually drop things.
This is not all yet......
The next person I encountered was a yellow goblin.
There was only one, so I pack the distance to slip and stab him through the neck before he could put up a shield.
The scattered yellow goblins dropped tons of coins and items once again.
……
"Heh," the antidote to yellow goblins, "he said. You're dropping this. Seems to have the same potion and effect for paralysis release, but I've never seen it before. Unusual."
"... Hey, no, not yet, one more time..."
"Mr. Alvin? What's wrong with you?
The next thing I encountered was an electric spider.
This is a hassle when you get paralyzed thread sprinkled, so take this down quickly anyway.
The little spider shaped monster dropped more items than ever before.
"What, there's 'Thunderballs'!? Even an electrified spider drops it ~"
Cocor said as surprised.
"You're lucky! Mr. Alvin, is it possible you're lucky to drop?
"... oh, I... am I lucky to drop..."
"Huh?"
"I didn't know... I've never been blessed with an item drop..."
"Yes?"
"... Mr. Cocol!
I accidentally stuck it in my cocoon.
"Hih!? What, what is it?
"Will you throw a party with me!?
"Ku, aren't you organizing, now..."
"It was. Then... please! Keep it up, stay with me forever!
"... Huh?
"I'm not sure I can live without you."
"Come on, what are you talking about, Mr. Alvin!?
Cocor leans backwards and turns away.
"Wow, we just got to know each other..."
"It doesn't matter. You exposed everything to me."
"Was I!?
"Oh. I can say with certainty. You and I go great together. This encounter must have been fate."
"That's all you say!?
"Naturally."
I nod.
But Cocor doesn't have a good response because it just brings it together.
"So... I don't know Mr. Alvin very well yet..."
"Ha... right"
With that said, I forgot to mention something important.
"Actually, I have negative skills, too."
"... Huh? Really?
"Oh. [Drop rate decrease - special]. Unlike yours, it's not very rare."
"Eh, it's unusual! Sure, [drop rate reduction] system skills are common negative skills, but I've never heard of [special] anyway if [small] or [medium]! You've been an adventurer a lot!?
"It was tough."
I talk about the hardships I've been through.
Cocor had heard about the recent kick out of the party with a spicy look on his face.
"That's why. I was diving alone in a dungeon like this for the same reason Mr. Cocor ended up."
"Really, Mr. Alvin... hehe, you're struggling with each other"
"Really."
"Hmm? That, but..."
And, there, Cocor puts his neck up.
"Didn't you just drop normally to have that kind of skill?
"Yes, that's it. If I'm alone, I often don't even drop coins on items. The drop just now... thanks to you. Mr. Cocor."
"What, mine?
"Your Negative Skills [Primary usurper] deems the monster that the party member kills to be the one you kill. You did, didn't you?
"Yes."
"So all the kill bonuses go into you... and the skills that party members have, like [increased experience] and [increased drop rate], that work when they kill a monster, will cease to activate"
"Yes.... hmm? No way......"
"Oh, looks like it"
I say.
"It's going to stop working - as is my [drop rate reduction - special]. If I party with you, I can be a normal swordsman... without any downside."
